A successful renovation or new build starts well before the first hammer swing. The pre-construction phase is where clarity, planning, and alignment come together—laying the groundwork for a project that runs smoothly and results in a home that reflects the people who live in it.
BAC Tour of Homes
Our tour this month shows just some exciting progress and lots of variety—a quick snapshot of the customized solutions we provide for each of our homeowners.
Alpharetta — Victorian Farmhouse
This genteel farmhouse in Alpharetta has classic lines, but was looking a bit tired on the outside and the inside was no longer working well for our homeowners. The transformation from tired to wow is well underway.
Bathroom Makeovers!
The BAC Team finished a job where we transformed not one, not two, but THREE bathrooms. This makeover went way beyond a superficial style upgrade, but transformed every surface and fixture in all three bathrooms. To make it more fun, our homeowners had a penchant for contemporary styling and their selections added a definite WOW! factor, not only to their master bathroom, but to the kids bath and powder room.
BAC Tour of Homes
Despite the slow down for many due to Georgia’s Stay at Home order, our essential business has stayed busy. As you can imagine, keeping projects going was important to our homeowners! Kitchens, bathrooms, bedrooms are all of vital importance to each of our families. Enjoy a quick tour through some of busy month of April.
Top Bathroom Remodel in 2018
What is not to love about this amazing bathroom? A Master bath that makes a huge statement without being palatial. This has to be hands down our favorite bathroom renovation of 2018 — let’s walk through all of the best features.
Custom Solutions
One of our promises to clients is to come up with solutions that fit their particular needs, not using mass-produced "solutions" that cannot anticipate each home's idiosyncrasies. Remember the customized barn doors, the doors carefully re-sized to fit the newly redone interiors, or the ultimate custom man-cave?
A Firm Foundation
A firm foundation is absolutely necessary when building secure & stable structures meant to house our families, those we love and cherish. Even the Sunday School dittie picks up on this theme, "The wise man built his house upon the ROCK!" with emphasis of fists pounding each like a hammer driving nails.
A strong foundation is no less important when adding on to a house. A proper foundation for a remodeling project may consist of additional footers or concrete being poured. It may consist of proper architectural renderings for your project. It might consist of an efficient and experienced contractor making detailed plans to get your project done in the least amount of time with the fewest number of days on the job all the while caring for your property as though it were his own. Or, it might mean all of those things.
Luxe Bathroom
This fall, Benjamin Andrew Construction was busy taking blueprints and making realities -- renovated bathrooms, kitchens, additions, and outdoor living space. These projects give a great showcase of what we're all about -- custom solutions to all sorts of renovation needs. We can take out, add on, take off, go up, and go out, and we do it all with a craftsman sense of preserving the good, refreshing the tired, and renewing with tried and true materials that will last. The next few weeks, we'll bring you tours of our finished projects. Can't wait to share them all!
Open to Possibilities
Among the many ongoing projects Benjamin Andrew Construction has going this fall, this remodel of a 1930's home on the outskirts of Atlanta is dramatic. The home has been added on to once before, with a two story addition, but the current homeowners have a multi-phase project starting this fall to reorganize, refresh, and recycle parts of the original 1930's main floor.
Barn Door Boom
What makes the trend in barn doors so hot right now? Are you afraid to jump on this trend because it may fade and be yesterday's brass fixture all too soon? The overall trend of incorporating rural design with city life is not new (remember those country style living rooms from the 90's?); it has merely changed and grown with time.
